what makes a great professor.Unlike the faculty of most universities—whoare primarily researchers and authors—Hultprofessors pride themselves first-and-foremost ontheir ability to excel in the classroom. Many have
achieved significant success in the real world, andare keen to share it with their students . Somehave worked in large multinationals likeMcKinsey & Company, Coca-Cola, and Credit
Suisse. Others have run their own businesses andenterprises. Several have developed their ownpatents for goods and services.
Inspiring teachers, satisfied students.Our professors and lecturers all possess impressiveacademic credentials—93% hold advanceddegrees from some of the world’s finest
institutions. But what matters most to ourstudents is their performance in the classroom.84% of Hult MBA students are highly satisfiedwith the quality of their professors. They are

Leadership skills:Professional growthThough few of us are born natural leaders, leadership canbe taught. Hult integrates the best leadership developmentpractices from the world’s top companies into our MBAcurriculum so you can make an immediate impact when you return to the workforce.
An award-winning leadershipdevelopment methodology
In 2014, Hult won the prestigious
Association of MBAs Innovation
Award for our ground-breaking
approach to incorporating the best
tools and techniques from
preeminent corporate leadership
development programs into our MBA
curriculum. Hult students develop five
key leadership competencies across
three development areas that
employers deem critical to success
(right). We call this the Hult LEAD
Model—Leadership through
Evaluation, Awareness and
Development.
How does LEAD work?
Since leadership can only truly be
learned through practice, Hult
students undergo a continuous
process of training, application, and
mentorship throughout their program
year. Critical to this process is
constant feedback and support from
fellow students and professional
coaches (see facing page). We begin
charting each student’s progress from
their first week of Immersion and, by
graduation, the results are very
impressive—over 85% of our students
show a significant improvement in all
five key compentencies and three
development areas.

The Business Challenge:Practical experiencePut all the business knowledge and leadership skills you learn tothe test with this seven-month competition in which you and your teammates devise a game-changing idea to solve an existingproblem for a major corporation, or to create the business planfor a startup.
Rise to the challenge and makea real impact
The key concepts of business can
certainly be introduced by a
teacher, case study, or textbook. But
they cannot truly be mastered
until they are grappled with firsthand.
The Business Challenge is a
seven-month group project to solve a
real business problem. It’s designed to
help you develop and test innovative
ideas that really make a difference—
not only to your MBA program but in
your future career and beyond.
How it works
The competition starts in Module A,
when students form teams and
choose a Business Challenge track. In
the CEO Challenge, you select a
problem set by top executives from
major multinationals. In the Startup
Challenge, you bring your own idea to
life for a new product, service, or
social enterprise. Throughout the
remainder of the year, your team
meets regularly to hone your
innovative idea into an actionable
plan, thanks to regular mentorship
and guidance from your professors
and local business professionals.
A launchpad for you career
The Business Challenge culminates in
a series of regional elimination
rounds, where teams compete
head-to-head to advance to the Global
Final, held at one of our campuses
worldwide. Finalists get to present
their business ideas to a panel of
esteemed judges comprised of
executives, global entrepreneurs, and
well-known founders of social
enterprises. The challenge isn’t just an
academic exercise, but the first step to
your dream job, or the launch pad for
your own startup or social enterprise.

A historic city witha young outlook
Founded in 1630, Boston can claim
to be America’s most historic city. It’s
certainly the most academic, with
over 300 colleges calling the
metropolitan center home (including
Harvard and MIT). There’s no
disputing that Boston’s knowledge-
based economy is a direct result of its
academic excellence. Greater Boston
is headquarters to dozens of
biotechnology, healthcare, and
pharmaceutical giants. It’s also a hub
for innovative tech firms like Google
and Facebook. This has helped
Boston attract a strong financial
services base—both Fidelity and
State Street are located here—as well
as numerous prestigious venture
capital firms. Little wonder the
Innovation Cities Global Index
consistently rates Boston as one of
the world’s most innovative cities.
An abundance of careeropportunities
Many of Hult’s MBA students choose
to remain in Boston post-graduation.
Frequent career fairs and networking
events are grand affairs, attracting
some of the world’s top employers.
Our Global Career Services office is
particularly well-connected to the
management consulting, financial
services, and technology industries.
Last year, over 80% of Hult Boston
students secured jobs within three

HultSan Francisco
San Francisco is home to the biggestbreakthrough companies of the twenty-firstcentury, assuming almost epicenter status forthe world’s most forward-thinkingentrepreneurs. The technology born here bythe likes of Apple, Google, and Facebook hasnot only brought about huge shifts in theglobal marketplace, it has also changed theface of corporate culture. San Francisco hasbecome a byword for creativity, and itssuccess stories epitomize what it means tohave a truly entrepreneurial mindset.
Why chooseSan Francisco
A perfect blend
San Francisco is the ideal location for
the digitally driven age we currently
live in. The city has long been
powered by the startup economy,
earning itself a global reputation for
creativity and technological wizardry.
Indeed, having seen a generation of
determined entrepreneurs build huge
business empires out of garages and
college dorm rooms, San Francisco
has become the world’s premier
destination for those wanting to push
the boundaries of the possible. Silicon
Valley, just south of the city, is the
world’s leading tech hub, and is home
to anyone who is anyone in the digital
world, including Facebook, Twitter,
eBay, Uber and Airbnb. Yet 85% of
companies in the Bay Area have less
than ten employees. This blend of
small and mighty makes for a truly
unique business community, where
forward thinking and creativity are the
most highly prized credentials.
A wealth of opportunities
A diverse population, startup driven
economy, and a notoriously informal
approach to corporate etiquette mean
that many conventional business rules
have no place in San Francisco.
A business fraternity of marketers,
creatives, operations specialists,
finance experts, and consultants fuel
the tech-driven industries, so
whatever your business skills, you can
be sure that your perfect role exits.
Social entrepreneurship and
sustainability are high on the city’s
agenda so anyone with experience in
these fields is particularly highly
sought after.

Networking is a way of life
San Francisco intentionally blurs the
boundaries between work and play, as
great networking opportunities crop up
constantly, often without any warning.
The renowned “meet-up” culture
combines making meaningful business
connections with socializing. Our campus
is geographically well placed to take
advantage of this engrained mentality,
and our own networking events provide
another valuable springboard into the
wider business community. Hult San
Francisco students tend to have an
entrepreneurial mindset and don’t waste
anytime capitalizing on the contacts they
have made; in fact, every year
partnerships are forged and initiatives
started while studies are still being
completed.
Have the ears of key players
Student participants in the CEO track
of the Business Challenge work with
executives on a long-term project to
solve a real business challenge.
Students get the opportunity to
collaborate with companies like
General Electric, Starbucks, LinkedIn,
Twitter, NASA, and Fairtrade to devise
meaningful solutions to actual
problems. Experiential learning
events such as Hult Heat, have seen
students present their business ideas
to 17 executive judges, former CEOs
of Fortune 500 companies, venture
capitalists, and entrepreneurs.
Connect with companies at ourCareer Open House
The latest annual Career Open House
held at Hult San Francisco featured 89
companies, including Twitter, Coca-Cola,
Yahoo, Google, Facebook, Apple and
IBM. Employers present current
opportunities within their business, and
give insights into their corporate culture
so you can decide if they are your match
made in heaven.
California Dreamin’
Seeking continual intellectual challenges,
keeping physically fit, and achieving
emotional well-being are all ways of life
in California, and San Francisco is no
different—mind, body and soul are all
extremely well catered-for here. Sports,
yoga and meditation are considered to
be more than just leisure pursuits, they
are deemed to be vitally important to
promoting a healthy work environment.
Hult San Francisco embraces this
philosophy with open arms during our
Well-being Week.
Highlights of yourMBA year

Whychoose London
The economic epicenterof Europe
People from almost 200 countries call
London home, and you can hear over
300 languages spoken on its streets.
Yet, peculiarly British idiosyncrasies
are openly embraced by this
incredibly vibrant cultural melting pot,
meaning it doesn’t take long to feel at
home. Centuries of economic
success, an established reputation as
a global financial center, and a
distinguished history of academic
excellence give London the
confidence to be creative. Its
distinctive brand of music, fashion,
art, and film continues to set global
trends. The city’s business landscape
is as international as the population.
Over 250 foreign banks have
branches here, and 588 foreign
companies are listed on the London
Stock Exchange. The world has a very
real stake in London, and London in
turn thrives on its international
reputation.
Limitless career options
Every major industry is represented in
London, offering a huge variety of
career opportunities. Finance may be
the sector that most people
traditionally associate with London,
but the creative industries are really
making their mark on the city’s
landscape. 70% of Europe’s major
advertising agencies have offices in
London, and careers in marketing are
increasingly popular. Over recent
years a vibrant startup scene has
boomed, and it is now the European
leader in the digital and technology
sectors. The world is your oyster
if you choose to work in London.
“ London is one of the few cities in the world that istruly global. As you walk through the streets, you will hear morethan a dozen languages, and meet a broad range of interestingpeople. That is reflected in Hult’s London campus.”

It is the world’s mostinternational city, and an economicpowerhouse to be reckoned with. Moremultinational companies are headquarteredhere than in any other European city.

Our campus is at the intersection of London’s academic, creative and financial districts.
Our students have a strong desire to learn from each other.
A perfect balance of contemporaryand traditional style
Hult’s graduate campus is a
beautifully converted Georgian
building with views over the historic
Gray’s Inn Gardens, where the city’s
leading barristers have been based
since 1370. Spread over six floors, theinterior has been transformed into a
modern stylish study environment,
while the exterior retains all the
period features you would expect
from a building of this age. An
open-plan atrium, event space, bright
classrooms, and 16 breakout rooms
are just some of the fantastic facilities
that students can take advantage of.
The roof deck and courtyard where
you can enjoy an in-between-lectures
coffee are the cherries on the cake.
Everything you could need righton your doorstep
Our campus borders the academic
heartland of Bloomsbury, which has
the highest concentration of
universities in London, and Holborn,
a global media, marketing, and
advertising hub. The financial districtis a short distance away, and if you
head eastwards, you hit Tech City,
Europe’s largest startup cluster
centered around Old Street. You’re
also in walking distance of Covent
Garden’s theaters, Oxford Street’s
shopping, and Soho’s nightlife.
Giving you access to businesspeople at the top of their game
During class time and through
campus-organized events, we aim to
give our students every possible
opportunity to meet people at the top
of their professions and engage in
real-world business issues. Procter &Gamble, PwC, Barclays, Burberry,
Mars, and BSkyB were just some of
the 120 companies who shared their
business insights with our MBA
graduates last year. Our regular
industry panel events see contentious
business issues debated live by
leaders from the likes of Barclays,
Salesforce, PwC and Google in front
of audiences made up from the
student body and local business
people.

with opportunities to hear from leaders
such as Paul Polman, CEO of Unilever;
Alastair Campbell, former advisor to the
British Prime Minister; and Muhtar Kent,
Coca-Cola’s CEO. The city’s 40 plus

collaborative learning and mastering the
art of networking.

close proximity to so many leading
organizations sees student clubs

you want to kill two birds with one
stone, join the Football & Business
